I am a native of Ferguson, Mo and a lover of reading. I want to share the love of reading with others.
It is important for children especially to see themselves represented in books.
Small planet of huge diversity
I love to read and enjoy promoting it.
The beauty of the world lies in the diversity of its people. Reading expands our understanding of the world and brings us closer together.
